The fivefold ministry was never meant to build empires - it was meant to build the Body. In The Hand of God's Church, Bible teacher Mark A. Hamric takes readers on a journey through the purpose, order, and heart behind Ephesians 4:11-13. Using the powerful image of the hand - apostles as the thumb, prophets as the pointer, evangelists as the reach, pastors as the covenant ring, and teachers as the grounding pinky - Hamric reveals how these gifts work together to strengthen the Church. This book calls leaders and believers alike back to humility, unity, and service. The fivefold ministry is not a ladder to climb - it is a towel to carry. And when the hand of the Church is united in prayer, it becomes a fist that hell cannot withstand.
